When concerning the acts of corruption by the Western Catholic church people will typically use the phrase "The Church" to demean organized Christianity as a whole. I've been increasingly more interested in Orthodoxy and I was hoping I could find some knowledge of how the church known by many westerners compares to the Orthodox. For instance, was the prohibition on publicly owned Bibles up unto the Protestant revolution unique to the Catholics?

Yes. Orthodox not only permitted you to own the Bible, it was always actively translated.

Find your nearest Orthodox Church on Google maps and talk to the priest.

Interesting. Also, is there anything comparable to the Inquisition in the history of the Eastern church?
>>
>>1206915
No, the Church doesn't have the power to sentence people to death, and never has.

Not even kabbalist rabbis who sacrificed babies to Molech?

There is no Orthodox equivalent to the Catholic "Cum nimis absurdum".

Jews were persecuted a lot in Russia, especially in retribution for what happened to Gregory V of Constantinople, but the Church never had a hand in these things.
